One of my favorite blues albums over the last several months has been Hellfire from Kenny Parker, using it as the soundtrack for a couple of runs. Additionally three of the tracks, “Dance with Me”, “Hellfire” and “Bye, Bye Baby” are on my most recent Dance-Cardio workout playlist.

So I made a trip to New Releases Now today and took a quick look at the new albums released today (March 23,2019). Among the albums released are three from artists who are favorites of mine. There are five more that I think I’ll also give a listen.
So the question of the evening is should I write a post about today’s run or read some in one of the three books I am currently reading. Pondering on it the first thought that comes to mind is that my 4 mile run today was not all that exciting. My pace over the course of the run was 10:04. A little slower than my last few runs but still pretty good.
So today was supposed to be colder with a chance of some snow, so yesterday was the better day to run. Since my knee still felt slightly funky I decided that once again , I would run my standard 3.1 mile course. By the time I reached the first mile mark my leg felt pretty good. I was running at a 10:01 min/mile pace and running easily,. As I continued my run, I tried to keep my pace a little slower than my last couple of runs. To do that I kept a close eye on my heart rate and when it rose to around 145 or so I slowed down a little.
How about an early afternoon”pick me up”! Here’s Tomislav Goluban with “Pigeon Swing” the opening track of his latest release Chicago Ranbler. I first discovered his music back in 2015 when I listened to his release Blow Junkie. You can check out my review of Blow Junkie and more about Tomislav here
The Run – Four Miles with a Hill!
So after two very cold days the temperatures today rose into the high 40s. As such, it became the first running day of the week. Since I do t like to run on back to back days and Friday is a Target work day, it’s looked like today would be the only run until the weekend. I therefore decided I would make it a tougher run than my normal 5K run. I decided the run would be four miles and would include a run up the highest hill in the area.
